North Korea is the Hermit Kingdom like Alcatraz was a hermit island.
Wtf was China doing voting in favor of this though
le me guess “real politik but it’s leftist so it’s good akchually”
China’s foreign policy was really dogshit back in the day. It’s still far from perfect these days as well.
I’m just amazed it’s finally getting better, stuff like their brokering the detente between Iran and Saudi is promising
Yes
bad foreign policy is a prc tradition
This is something I’m confused about, I read somewhere that Qatar apparently hired North Koreans for labor?
My English and (lived in America for over a decade) Qatari colleagues inform me though that most likely because the DPRK have their families hostage, they won’t attempt to flee or seek asylum so I’m sure that’s the reason. Also they probably all have like the same haircut because North Korea only allows like one haircut or something.
The DPRK / China border is soft. Travel backwards and forwards over it happens every day with trade going back and forth. There is no need to go through some obscure Qatar exchange to get out of the DPRK.

But the 1,420 km (880 mile) long border with China is a real challenge.
Just like many reporters, I’ve visited places on it before, and got a few pictures here and there. But this time we did what I had always wanted - we drove from its south to its north end. In eight days we drove through mile after mile of nothing, guarded by no-one.
Nothing guarded by nobody is actually a wonderful story, especially if you are in the mood to really look.

Also, what is it with you far-right idiots calling everyone remotely left of you “liberals”? Liberals aren’t leftists. I’m a communist, not a liberal or a fascist like you.

So heavy economic sanctions on industrial and agricultural resources has no effect on a country’s economy? That’s seriously your claim?
Removed by mod
They do. However, the DPRK can easily lift those sanctions by stopping being a far-right dictatorship.
Siri, tell me about the “police action” in Korea.
The DPRK is not a far right dictatorship. If you want to call them a far left dictatorship I’ve got problems with that too, but at least you’re in the right ball park.
fuck off back to reddit, shitlibFuck off back to the DPRK, fascist.
A communist that doesn’t read and spreads liberal brainworms?
Sure buddy.
I’m a leftist, not a liberal, you stupid fascist.
Either read and learn before commenting or shut the fuck up, accept that you’re a fascist and get ready to meet 
Bruh, you’re the fascist defending a dictatorship. I’m a communist.
